One thing, though... isn't there some script that clears out /private/ tmp at startup? Perhaps it should also check to make sure it exists? Actually, it looks like /etc/rc used to do just that on 10.4. Where does this happen on 10.5 now? launchd itself? I didn't see anything in the source.

I just confirmed that if /private/tmp is not present on boot, it does not get re-created and then Bad Things happen (one of which is no pboard daemon). I'm still not seeing where /private/tmp gets cleared on boot for 10.5. Best I can come up with is /etc/periodic/daily/110.clean-tmps. -Dave
